Am I awake?
I need to have a good night sleep. Grace has yet to sleep through the night on a consistent basis. I feel like a zombie some days, today being one of them. She only gets up once but it is getting old. At 5 1/2 months, am I expecting too much to have her sleep all night?? Any tips??
It could be the naps she is taking, but maybe I am just jealous.

Linda, maybe cut her naps short. She's taking two, for a couple hours, right? Maybe try gradually cutting them to an hour and a half and then in a few weeks back to an hour each. By bedtime, she's going to be so tired, she'll go right to sleep. And, yes, you're probably jealous that she can nap but you can't!!
I am married to Kristopher and have 2 wonderful girls, Caroline and Grace. I was an EBD teacher before the girls and now enjoy being home. I am currently trying to find a way to use my voice in the world.
